Using The Generator - PowerSmith PGA2200i Manuel D'utilisation

Turn the auto idle switch to the OFF position and connect the appliance to the generator. If the engine still will not reach
normal operating speed, check that the appliance does not exceed the rated load capacity of the generator.

USING THE GENERATOR

Before using the generator, be aware of the generator's capacity:
2200W: For short time (3 seconds) surge, do not exceed this rated surge power.
2000W: Maximum power for
1700W: For continuous operation, do not exceed this rated running power.
In any case, the total wattage of all appliances connected must be considered. Most appliance motors require more than
their rated wattage for startup. Refer to
Do not exceed the current limit specified for the power outlets.
Do not connect the generator to an automatic transfer switch. Severe damage to the generator and engine will result.
Do not modify or use the generator for other purposes than it is intended for.
Do not connect an extension to the exhaust pipe.
When an extension cable is required, be sure to use a tough rubber sheathed flexible cable.
Keep all cooling holes open and clear of debris, mud, water, etc. Cooling holes and air intake are located on the bottom
cover. If the cooling holes and air intake are blocked, the generator may overheat, lack of output power and damage
the engine, inverter, or windings.
The DC socket can be used while the AC power is in use. If you use both at the same time, be sure not to exceed the
total power for AC and DC.
1.
Connect the ground terminal.
2.
Start the engine according to «STARTING THE ENGINE». If the output
indicator doesn't light green and the overload indicator lights red
instead, press the reset button.
3.
Confirm that the appliances
the plug of the AC appliances
The DC socket should only be used for charging 12 volt automotive-
type batteries, the zero load voltage is 14.2V.
The USB socket should only be used for charging 5 volt mobile or
digital equippment, e.g. mobile power bank.
4.
Switch on the appliances to be used. Start with the
highest surge/starting power.
In case of overload or when trouble occurs for the
the overload indicator will turn red and no electrical power output.
Using DC Socket
The DC socket should only be used for charging 12 volt automotive-type batteries, the zero load voltage is 14.2V.
1.
Connect the charging cables to the DC outlet of the generator.
2.
Connect the red lead of battery charging cable to the positive (+) battery terminal and the black lead to the negative
(-) battery terminal.
To prevent the possibility of creating a spark near the battery, connect charging cable first to the generator, then to the
battery. Disconnect cable first at the battery. Reconnect the vehicle's grounded battery cable after the charging cables
are removed. This procedure will prevent the possibility of a short circuit and sparks if you make accidental contact
between a battery terminal and the vehicle's frame or body.
Do not attempt to start an automobile engine with the generator still connected to the battery. The generator may be
damaged. Connect the positive battery terminal to the positive charging cord. Do not reverse the charging cables, or
serious damage to the generator and/or battery may occur.
WARNING:
The battery gives off explosive gases; Keep sparks flames and cigarettes away. Provide
adequate ventilation when charging.
